¶Mice are pretty resourceful, but apparently are not that great at thinking ahead. This little guy probably thought he had discovered paradise as he leapt into the dog food container, leaving the problem of getting back out for later. Well, later came this morning when Renee went to feed Teddy and she discovered him (and nearly had a heart attack). He could jump a few inches, but had zero chance of escaping. I drove the container over to a field and let him go.
